ZAP: Zoned Architecture and Parallelizable Compiler for Field Programmable Atom Array

Abstract: Neutral atom quantum computing platforms have gained significant attention due to their potential scalability and flexibility in qubit arrangement. In this work, we present a novel zoned architecture for neutral atom quantum compilation, which divides the system into distinct zones: a storage zone and an interaction zone. This architecture optimizes atom placement and interaction scheduling, effectively reducing the operation depth and improving parallelism during compilation. Through a tailored algorithmic approach, we significantly enhance the compilation efficiency and scalability compared to existing methods. Compared to the state-of-the-art Enola platform, our method achieves a 5.4x increase in fidelity when the system need 100 qubits, marking a pivotal advancement in neutral atom quantum computing. Our approach provides a robust framework for future large-scale quantum computations, ensuring both high fidelity and efficient execution.
